GAY PRIDE PARADE - Sunday, 24 June
While not an official "Diversey Yacht Club" event, we list this because of the huge turn-out of members who come and watch this parade every year. It has in fact, become an event. Chicago's largest and most entertaining parade of the year ends right at Diversey Harbors doorstep. The parade kicks-off at noon from Belmont and Halsted and should arrive at the finish line, Cannon Drive and Diversey at approximately 1:00 p.m. You will find the parade watchers from Diversey Yacht Club on the south side of Diversey, one half block west of Cannon Drive. Bring a chair, a camera and some cold beverage, (fun costumes are very popular). Click here to see photos from Last Years Parade.
